When I deleted a bookmark, it looked like the wrong bookmark had been deleted, even though the right one had been deleted. It was a well documented issue even though it took forever to fix
[QUOTE=lavacano;37162096]Flash Player in general is shit, I for one will be among the first to completely abandon it once HTML5 finally takes hold[/QUOTE]
I don't really think it's fair to say it's flash player's fault when the issue was in no other browser I'd ever tried
[QUOTE=lavacano;37162096]See first statement of previous counterpoint.[/QUOTE]
It's true that when a tab crashes only that tab crashes, but I just plain never got crashes in Opera so it's not like it was really better - plus all your tabs re-open when you open opera by default so I never lost what I had open.
[QUOTE=lavacano;37162096]uhh? Either you're doing something unusual or you broke something somehow. Or I'm just really bad at interpreting this one. One of the three.[/QUOTE]
I mean when you double-click the top bar of the window, say for example right to the left of the minimize button, it "restores" the window (takes it out of maximized), whereas in opera double clicking right of the tabs (Even if you were nowhere near the new tab button) made a new tab.
[QUOTE=DamagePoint;37162943]Um, I'm pretty sure each of the browsers are still going to compete over which one is faster.
Chrome used to be the undisputed fastest browser but Safari 6 is noticeably faster than Chrome, and I'm sure Google is going to release a version of Chrome that's even faster in the near future. The battle over standards may be over, for now anyways, but the browser wars will never be over.[/QUOTE]
Opera is still the fastest browser I've used, despite speed tests supposedly putting chrome at the top. It seems to load larger pages faster because that's when you can tell the most, and it doesn't have the insanely massive start up lag I get on chrome (sometimes it takes up to a minute to load the first page I open).
[QUOTE=Ardosos;37163026]When was this? Oh, how the mighty have fallen.[/QUOTE]
Fallen? More like how the mighty got the other browsers to get their shit into gear.
It's not like Chrome got slower.
[QUOTE=Elecbullet;37161411]Us Firefox users are a dying breed, it seems.[/QUOTE]
The only reason I use Firefox instead of Chrome is because it keeps freezing when browsing FP.
you guys realize that this is a really bad thing right
the do not track thing is a completely optional thing for advertisers to follow, if microsoft just makes it default the advertisers will stop giving a shit about it and woopie microsoft ruins do not track with their short sightedness.

I like FF better than Chrome but recently FF has been taking a piss at me and completely refuses to open youtube, even after complete reinstall and all setting/addons removed D;
I used FF for years and years but then it started crapping up so I switched to Chrome for a temp change and just stuck with it.
I got really tired of chrome crashing on me every 10 minutes so, now that I'm using Windows 8, I just use IE10 and, personally, it just feels nicer. It feels way more stable and the speed difference is barely noticeable.
